This strategic plan has been formulated for the interim period 2008-2010, which includes the period of making of the new constitution for the Federal Democratic Republic of Nepal (FDRN). This document is based on the felt needs of NHRC. The experience and lessons learned from the implementation of the earlier strategic plans have provided guidelines during the different stages of preparing this document. The NHRC has identified nine core values of human rights. The values include Accessibility, Accountability, Diversity, Equality and Equity, Impartiality, Independence, Integrity, Participation and Transparency. NHRC endeavors to comply and consider these values in a wide range of its activities.Nepal has undergone significant changes over the past years in political, social and economic
environment. Particularly, transformation from the situation of armed conflict to gradual peace process has given new hope and renewed aspiration to Nepalese people. In order to respond the current need of human rights in changed context of the country, NHRC has decided to formulate new strategic plan for the next three years, i.e. from the year 2008 to 2010. Naturally, planning initiatives have to respond to the changed ethos and aspiration of the people to ensure them more dignified and qualitative life. Further, this entails to equip them with all attributes of
human rights enshrined in various international human rights treaties. The National Human Rights Commission has prepared this plan taking the above mentioned perspective into consideration. This is the first strategic plan prepared by the commission after
the NHRC has been elevated to an independent constitutional body from previous statutory status. It is, therefore, the present plan has to integrate the human right aspects of the directive principles of the interim constitution within its fold. However, its success depends upon effective implementation in which case, the commission will obviously feel that its goal is accomplished.
